HIS machine is designed for general resawing and 

 is built to withstand the heaviest work without 

 weakening or vibration. 



Stock any width up to 30 inches can be resawed, and 

 the rolls open 13 inches wide, its outer ones 8 inches 

 from the saw and the inner 5 inches. Thus, sheets can 

 be sawed from the side of a timber 8 inches thick or a 

 5-inch piece taken from a timber 13 inches thick. 



From the ground up this is a tool, of the greatest 

 strength, speed and efficiency, and you will find it 

 profitable to write for circular giving full details and 

 specifications.

zA PRACTICAL HANDBOOK 



For Decorators, Paperhangers, Architects, Build- 

 ers and House Owners, with many half-tone and

Br ARTHUR SEYMOUR JENNINGS 



Extract from Preface 

 The author has endeavored to include char- 

 acteristic designs in vogue to-day, and to giv 

 reliable information as to the choice of wall 

 papers as well as to describe the practical 

 methods of applying them. In dealing with 

 matters concerning decoration there is always 

 the danger of leaning too much toward an i e 

 and of overlooking the practical requirements 

 of commercial life. The author hopes that he 

 has been successful in avoiding this fault, and 

 that his book will be regarded as both practical 

 and useful.
